Historian

I am a historian of modern China. I received my Ph.D. in East Asian Studies from Princeton University and have published on many topics including Chinese conservatism, ethnic minority identities, anti-Americanism, and American soldiers in China after World War II.

Gu Hongming's eccentric Chinese Odyssey by Chunmei DU

Gu Hongming's Eccentric Chinese Odyssey is the first comprehensive study in English of Gu Hongming, both the private individual and the public cultural figure. It examines the controversial scholar's intellectual and psychological journeys across geographical, national, and cultural boundaries in new global contexts. In addition to complicating existing studies of Chinese conservatism and global discussions on civilization around the World War I era, the book sheds new light on the contested notion of authenticity within the Chinese diaspora and the psychological impact of colonialism.
